Capybara Games Brings Find Your Words to PC This April
Capybara Games has announced that Find Your Words will launch in April as a free-to-download short adventure on PC. The studio, best known for Below, Grindstone and Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP, also confirmed an optional supporter edition is planned to arrive later for players who want to back the project beyond the free release.
A new trailer debuted alongside the announcement at The MIX Showcase, offering a first look at a game deliberately smaller in scope but unusually specific in intent. Find Your Words is not pitched as a systems-heavy sandbox or a sprawling narrative. It is a focused, gentle experience about connection, communication, and the ways people understand one another beyond speech.
A Summer Camp Adventure Built Around Nonverbal Communication
Find Your Words takes place at a colourful summer camp, with players stepping into the role of a child learning to communicate without speech. The game’s moment-to-moment structure is grounded in exploration and observation, moving through campgrounds filled with wildlife while building a sense of belonging one friendship at a time.
As the camp opens, players collect symbols for a communication binder and learn how different combinations convey different meanings. That system is not framed as a puzzle to solve for points. It is the core way you interact with the world, unlocking new activities, moments, and connections as you build confidence and understanding. Over time, the game promises that friendships deepen and characters reveal their quirks, shifting the focus from novelty to familiarity.
Capybara is also clear that the game is designed for all ages, aiming to give children a sense of wonder while offering adults a sense of nostalgia through small moments, such as wandering through the woods, spending time by the beach, or dancing with friends.
A Personal Project Shaped by Lived Experience and Expert Feedback
Find Your Words began as a passion project led by two Capybara developers and fathers, Jon Maur and Vic Nguyen, inspired by their shared experience raising non-speaking children. That context matters because it explains why the game’s central mechanic is not a gimmick. It is the point.
Development has been informed by feedback from speech language pathologists and AAC users, which signals an intent to approach communication with care rather than treating it as an aesthetic.
Find Your Words is available to wishlist on Steam ahead of its April launch.
